COMMUNITY events
Join us to explore your creative side through art workshops, kids’ activities, exhibitions, and more. There’s something to bring out the artist in everyone!
A Seat at the Table | Candlelit Paella Dinner
Saturday, May 11 | 6-8 pm
Brent Warr | Artist Talk
Saturday, June 1 | 4-5 pm
Brent Warr is an artist and designer making sculptural art, collectible furniture, and lighting for clients from New York to Australia. As a fresh college graduate in a studio apartment, Warr began shopping for furniture and wasn’t drawn to anything he loved, so he made his own pieces using wood, paint, and plaster. What began as an exploration developed into a full-fledged Atlanta studio and the debut of his Woodfin furniture collection.
The Center’s Q & A with Warr will focus on process, identity, and cultural nuance in art-making. Non-Members | $25; Members | $10. Complimentary wine and light bites.
